I put WRHB's in a Jazzmaster, ala Lee Ranaldo from Sonic Youth. It sounds twangy, almost Tele-esque. Not at all like Sonic youth, even with the Fuzz pedals set to thermonuclear overdrive. But I wouldn't have it any other way. I'd say stick to your guns, err, original idea. I am a big proponent of the, "If it makes you smile, it makes you sound better," theory of rig design.
